@Michael, awesome pix! Nice to photo the empty space so you can really get a feel for its capabilities. Unfortunately makes my library seem to pail in comparison!

Thanks @michael. There are so many good questions out there it was hard to pick!

@michael This is a fantastic idea! Our local library sometimes does “teen lock-ins” at night where they play games and other organized activities and evidently have a lot of candy, but to my knowledge they’ve incorporated a read-a-thon component.

@Michael, hope you find relief soon in whichever way works for you. I love yoga (just took a class this morning!) and love that it is such meditative and holistic practice for the mind and body.

@michael I am happy you agree, I think people sharing their memories can be a good way to promote libraries as an important institution going forward. It is a way to draw people together, which not many other things can do.

@michael You can see from the date of this post that I got a bit behind and am just now catching up on my readings/viewings! Your comments about telling stories with emojis and other formats reminded me that there was a book that was written in the 1990’s entirely from vanity license plates in California. I did a quick Google search and found it…[Read more]

@michael Thank you! The check marks help me keep track of what I’ve actually used – but I still wanted to give credit to those resources that provided inspiration. I’m glad you like it!

@michael It is really interesting. I wonder where we will go from here. On a personal level I’m not scared of AI becoming a staple in our everyday lives. It’s impressive in an intimidating way how advanced it has gotten. I think one day it can become indistinguishable from humans, I just wonder if that will become integrated into our everyday…[Read more]

Yes, thanks for checking in @michael! It’s Spring Break for my work school so I’ve got a chance to slow down and catch up. It is much needed these days. The fluid due dates for this class are really a help but I still want to stay on top of the schedule. May will be a very busy month for me so I need to not fall behind! Thank you.

Thank you for checking in, @michael. I’ve been incredibly sick for the last two weeks, but I’m finally feeling more like myself. I’ve been keeping up with the reading material but I think I’m echoing a lot of my classmates in saying that times are chaotic. We all sincerely appreciate having an attentive and considerate professor like you!

@michael Thank you for checking in on us. I am doing ok trying to balance work and school. I feel lucky that I am working in a library so all the material I am studying I can apply to my job.

@Michael, thank you for your thoughtful post. There are no shortage of things to worry about/do/hamster wheel over. I just checked out this book called “The Worry(less) Book: Feel Strong, Find Calm and Tame Your Anxiety,” by Rachel Brian. It’s a kids graphic novel and my daughter and I were just reading the tactics for your “anxiety tool box” and…[Read more]

@Michael, I love the idea of “historical empathy” and had not heard that phrase before.

@Michael, super cool! I experienced a robot deliver my sushi lunch to me and it was weird, but fun! I am all for creating free-roaming options for circulation. It makes too much sense.

@michael. Your discussion of emojis in this week’s lecture reminded me of a conversation that I had with a friend. We were talking about how the persian language is so difficult to learn for non-speakers because it is filled with so many unique idioms, and expressions. Persians often quote lines of poetry when discussing a certain story to…[Read more]
